Historic Interest

Built in 1905 by James N. Coombs, the home was generally considered the most elegant residence in Apalachicola. Coombs was one of the town's most influential citizens; he turned down his party's nomination for Governor of Florida in 1900, and briefly was promoted as candidate for the U.S. vice presidency in 1908.

Wonderfull Stay

We stayed just one night (was kind of a day trip for us) over a Sunday night Oct 8th. The room was very nice well decorated and clean. My wife knew nothing of the plans till we got there and was very surprised. I had no real interaction with the staff other than check in and out whice went smooth and easy. Missed breakfast (we slept in) so I have no basis to rate the food. It was a quiet and very relaxed place both the Inn and the town itself. Were within walking distance of the downtown area shops restaurants and parks (which there are many). Most of the shops feature local craftsmen and artist and EVERYONE was so friendly (even the late night cashier at the mini mart). We bought a few very nice photo prints and a wonderful piece of stained glass for the house. Will be coming back alot to both the Inn and the town.

The Best Spring Vacation

Our visit was more than we expected at the Coombs House! Luxury everywhere in the mansion and the most delicious breakfast plus afternoon tea and cookies. Innkeeper is an excellent guide for tours and local points of interest. Go there! Carl&Jene

A Nice Stay

We stayed here in December -- after a chilly motorcycle ride across the state. The fireplace sure was a welcome sight! Room was comfortable and meals were delicious.
